520 |bWalter J. Ong's classic work provides a fascinating
insight into the social effects of oral, written, printed
and electronic technologies, and their impact on
philosophical, theological, scientific and literary
thought. This thirtieth anniversary edition - coinciding
with Ong's centenary year - reproduces his best-known and
most influential book in full and brings it up to date
with two new exploratory essays by cultural writer and
critic John Hartley. Hartley provides: A scene-setting
chapter that situates Ong's work within the historical and
disciplinary context of post-war Americanism and the rise
of communication and media studies; A closing chapter that
follows up Ong's work on orality and literacy in relation
to evolving media forms, with a discussion of recent
criticisms of Ong's approach, and an assessment of his
concept of the 'evolution of consciousness'; Extensive
references to recent scholarship on orality, literacy and
the study of knowledge technologies, tracing changes in
how we know what we know. These illuminating essays
contextualize Ong within recent intellectual history, and
display his work's continuing force in the ongoing study
of the relationship between literature and the media, as
well as that of psychology, education and sociological
thought. Walter J. Ong's classic work provides a
